Mission Statement
Privacy is in our DNA and at the core of our products. 4Fimo® is
a project built on a simple concept, to send, fetch, search,
explore, and share files between your desktop computer and any
web-enabled device (e.g., phones, tablets, and other computers)
without the need to use any third-party cloud services or
physical cables. Files are not replicated anywhere else outside
of your devices.
Our Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we
use it, and the choices you have, including how to manage and
access the information we have about you, and how to
delete
your Account. We built 4Fimo® with strong privacy and security
principles, like encrypting and anonymizing the information we
collect from you (such as your email address, meta data, and
other personal information), which means we and third parties
cannot read or listen to them.
For our app to work, we collect some information to operate,
provide, improve, understand, customize, support, and market our
products and services, including when you install, access, or
use our app. The types of information we collect are listed
below. However, any information we collect is for the listed
uses and will never be sold to any third party.
Files Maximum Size
4Fimo® allows members to send and share up to 50 files with a maximum size of 2 GiB per send. Fetch via (Explorer, Search, My List) allows access to files with a maximum size of 2 GiB.
Information You Provide:
You only provide a valid email address to create a 4Fimo® account.
Your Files.
We do not retain your files in the ordinary course of providing
our Services to you. Once your files are delivered, they are
deleted from our servers. If a file cannot be delivered
immediately for any reason, the information will be deleted
immediately and you will have to try again.
We store information (such as name, location, and size of
communicated files, and search keywords) until it is no longer
necessary to provide our services, or until your account is
deleted, whichever comes first. This is a case-by-case
determination that depends on things like the nature of the
information, why it is collected and processed, and relevant
legal or operational retention needs.
If you contact us for
